Opportunity Summary:
The BLM Idaho Noxious Weed Control Program (Funding Opportunity Number L16AS00045) is a discretionary federal grant opportunity administered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Land Management (DOI-BLM). It is focused on natural resources work, specifically the control and eradication of noxious weeds on public lands in Idaho. The overall purpose is to support on-the-ground invasive plant management that protects native ecosystems, wildlife habitat, watershed function, rangeland productivity, and other public land values that can be degraded when invasive and noxious weeds spread.
Funding under this opportunity is provided through a cooperative agreement, which typically means the federal agency expects to have substantial involvement in the project during planning and implementation compared with a standard grant. The eligible applicants are limited to state governments, indicating that projects would generally be led by a state agency or similar state-level entity working in coordination with BLM field offices and potentially other partners. The program is listed under CFDA 15.230, which aligns it with BLM assistance programs.
The opportunity was posted on March 9, 2016, with both the original and current application closing dates listed as August 15, 2016. The maximum award amount (award ceiling) is $10,000 per award, and the opportunity anticipated making up to 10 awards. In practical terms, this structure suggests multiple relatively small, targeted projects, such as localized treatments, rapid response actions for new infestations, follow-up treatments to prevent reinvasion, or other discrete weed management tasks that can be completed within a defined area and timeframe.
In summary, this funding opportunity supports state-led efforts, in partnership with the BLM, to reduce or eliminate noxious weed populations on public lands in Idaho using a cooperative agreement mechanism. It is designed to fund practical, field-oriented invasive plant control work with a modest per-award cap, distributed across multiple awards to address priority weed issues in different locations or management units.
